The Approved Diet for Children?

Buried in the unending litany of detentions, prisoner abuse, and communiqués that come from Cuba was this little nugget, illustrative of not only living conditions, but also of the absolute travesty of the UN Rapporteur for Food's pronouncements. And let's not forget the researchers who found the Cuban diet healthful.

It seems residents of Banes are upset that there has been no coffee for their rations in the month of December. The main complaint is that since milk is suspended at age seven, children are regularly served coffee and bread for breakfast. Because there is no coffee, children now receive a glass of water with sugar (if there is any) and bread.
